If you have questions or concerns about your gambling You are listening to the Joe Rogan Experience Review podcast. We find little nuggets, treasures, valuable pieces of gold in the Joe Rogan Experience podcast and pass them on to you, perhaps expand a little bit.

We are not associated with Joe Rogan in any way. Think of us as the talking dead to Joe's walking dead. You're listening to the Joe Rogan Experience Review. What a bizarre thing we've created. Now with your host, Adam Thorn. Might be the worst podcast, one of the best one of all time. One, go.

Enjoy the show. Hey guys, welcome to the Joe Rogan Experience Review. I'm Adam, joined as always, my loyal sidekick, Pete. How are you, bud? Hey, I'm doing pretty good. How are you, bud? Hey, I'm doing pretty good. How about you? Yeah, not too bad. Not too bad. Good old technical issues with the interwebs. Why is it figured out? Figure it out. I mean, I love how you

can just say that too, because like we can't. Like Rogan even has magic Rogan used to have this bit that I loved where you talk about if somebody just put you on a desert island. How long before you can send an email? And it's such a great, like, would you need to live like 1000 years, you just never figure it out. Would you? You just one person can't do that. No, even if I had all the technical abilities, if there's math involved, I'm done for.

He's just going to add. We're going to get your riddium. I don't have any gold on hand for circuit breakers. It'll be a mess. It'll be such a mess. All right, this week we have Ron White, legend of comedy. Yannis Papas, same thing, and good old Joey Diaz, the national treasure that he is.

Comedy Heavy Week. It's kind of been a comedy heavy month with Rogan, I think. Lots of comedians. Has he gone through everybody he wants to talk to? Now he's talking to the same people some more? I guess. You know, it's whoever he wants to talk to whenever. So he just does it that way.

I've got a feeling he's just trying to get a bunch of comedians to move there. He does that. Yeah. But for good reason, the club's dope. Get him out there. Let's make the new comedy store. That's what we're doing. And a bathroom.

I can't wait to check it out. It's so good, dude. We'll do a pilgrimage this year. Anyway, Ron White, man, tater salad, what a bit. He's... He's... He is so good, dude. His voice is great.

It's the best. And he's such a nice guy. I loved how in this podcast, you know, Rogan goes goes into his his bits. He throw in some politics, throw in some COVID stuff. And Ron doesn't like to touch any of it. He's like, man, I just want a golf. Like, all right. I never talk politics, I never will.

It's all about love. It's all about love. It's also great that, you know, he's quit drinking for some sort of health scare that he had. And now he's kind of more on a spiritual journey. It's just good because it means we've got Ron White around longer and I approve. I met Ron one time at the comedy store, I was actually watching Chris Rock preparing for,

I think, hosting the Oscars and it was like the first time Chris had been back in years. So, and it was just in the original room, which was amazing. I mean, that's like a $10 ticket back then. And I think it was like 2018. And I got up to go to the restroom and I got back and Ron was in my seat. I guess he just saw an empty seat. And I really didn't want to ask, but there were no other seats.

So I was like, shit, I don't think I can just stand up at the back. That part kicked me out. So I was like, oh, excuse me, I was sat here. He was so nice, dude. He was like, oh, I don't think I can just stand up at the back, that part kicked me out. So I was like, excuse me, I was sat here. He was so nice, dude. He was like, oh, shit, no worries. And of course, someone else brought him a chair. He sat down, he had his tequila on the table.

He offered me a shot. I was like, am I doing a shot with rum white? And then once Chris was fin- Oh, fuck yeah, I did. And we didn't really talk, you know, we were just watching Chris and laughing. And then shortly after that, they called Ron up, he did his set and I was just like, man, what a legend.

Just such a nice guy. Did he do the Tater Sal? Does he do that every time? No, he's got like way new material now. I mean, I think that's a story though, when he's touring, people might shout out and sometimes he'd do it. You know, and people have, people at the store sometimes have him do it too. Cause it's just such a legendary bit that, that he, he had thrown out there.

I mean, it's just so well crafted and ridiculous and brilliant. It's like, who can do it like Ron? Um, yeah, he loves, he loves his bus and I've always heard that he had that massive tour bus and just that's it. He just gets on it and tours around and yeah, I don't, I don't think I could ever love a job enough to tolerate a toll bus. It just doesn't sound that fun. Oh, he loves it. He says it rocks him to sleep like a little baby. Yeah, a little drunk baby. A little drunk baby. And I can, I can, I like driving too. I would way rather have something like that than a plane.

There's so uncomfortable airports and planes and all that stuff, but Joe brings up a lot of good points. It's not about how good your bus driver is and how safe your bus is. It's everybody else on the road who are nuts out there. It's got, it statistically has to be way more dangerous than a plane, right? Yeah, well, you know, the thing about a bus is,

unless it's ice and it flips, you're gonna be okay in an accident. The other person is probably not. You're just gonna plow through him. Yeah, you'll just, you'll get mangled up maybe, but you can, I think it'll be okay. Yeah, you run into the back of a semi though, and you just stood up making some bacon.

It can be in trouble. Oh yeah, making bacon. Making some bacon. I imagine myself doing that on a bus, making some bacon. He did get thrown into a chair, he said. That's right. He had a sudden stop or something and got whammyed and that can happen. It's all part of it for me.

I just think that I couldn't imagine doing that. But you know, you have to, you have to go to cities. You have to get the places. Like I guess, you know, if you're performing comedian, right? Or performing anything city to city, you gotta get there. You gotta move over there somehow, I guess unless you have your own frickin private jet zip around on that might be pretty comfortable I think that's how you start that's how you don't save money that's how you that's a good definitely that's MC Hammer level

blowing your money right and unless you're selling out stadiums everywhere you go, then you could probably, you know, tax right off that one. I guess there are nearly private jets. You can, you can rent a private jet as well if you wanted to. Oh, thank God. Joey talks about that. We'll cover that a little later on. Yeah, we, we, we get over to that.

One thing I wanted to touch on was Ron talking about his buddies that were like full on into QAnon back in the day So when did that really pop off? That was like 2016 to 8 no maybe 18 to 20 what was it? Who start was a pizza gate that started it off or something? It was like 4chan or something one of of these fricking dorky online things. And then it would just disseminate to other social medias and paranoid, angry people would jump in on the back of it and thinking it was all real.

Not a sense to you. I don't know. It's nonsense. When I was in Nashville in 2020, I was escaping COVID in LA. There were some people that we were staying with that were like really big into it. They were believing it and they were trying to persuade me and their arguments were poor. I mean, I don't know if anyone could sell me on that idea, even if they were a really good speaker, because it's so much of it just came across as absurd paranoia.

That, you know, I understood their motive for it. Like they wanted to believe it. They wanted to feel like they were in the know and other people didn't know and there was the savior out there that was gonna fix everything. But this like evil cabal dialogue just fell on deaf ears with me. It turns us off.

I was like, it turns the rational mind off. Yeah, I was like, dude, this is absurd. Joe was talking about it or something similar. It's like. This is an advertisement from BetterHelp Therapy Online. talking about it or something similar, it's like... is that they have to be easy to be right. But sometimes the best ones happen when both people put in the work to make them great. This is where therapy comes in. I've been going to therapy for years

and I've found great benefits from it. I'm actually in graduate school now for behavioral health therapy. And it has taught me to compromise, feel greater empathy, be more patient with the people that I'm interacting with. So try out BetterHelp. It's entirely online, designed to be convenient,

If you're thinking of starting therapy, give Better Help a try. They provide access to mental health professionals with a wide variety of expertise. No referral needed. Our listeners get 10% off their first month at betterhelp.com. That's better. You have some conspiracy theories that are totally bonkers and impossible. Not real. Then you have some conspiracy theories that are a little more reasonable,

potentially on the edge of believability. And then you have ones that are like, oh, yeah, that happens. Right. There are rich people that get together and they control parts of this world. And they lump them all together as conspiracy theories, devaluing every one of them. So QAnon is one that really brings down the whole... It's the rotten apple that spoils the barrel. Sure. And it's kind of a derogatory term to say, oh, well, he's just a conspiracy theorist. Well, what if that person was the one guy that was like mostly right? You know, like

he got Epstein Island understood or he got like, you know, Bohemian Grove, correct. I mean, and Joe says it about Alex Jones, which is really controversial because he fucked up real bad with the Sandy Hook stuff. But he was talking about Epstein's Island in like 2010. And that one is one that you would put in the absurd category to start with Like the world's richest elites go to this island to have sex with children and you'd be like dude Seriously, if that was happening, we would all know about it Yeah, we like if fucking is true So how many other ones are better organized that we don't know about?

There's got to be more. So it's reasonable to have those kind of conspiracy theories. I think that the, yeah, we, there's only so many, well, a lot of the conspiracy theories that we have bandied about have been proven to be true. So they're not conspiracy theories, they're conspiracy facts. Yep. And we're not the brightest eggs in the dozen. So, or as the common phrase is turned, of course, uh, the smarter minds out there. We're in the top half of the eggs.

Well, maybe that's just the thing everyone likes to think. If there's a half dozen, we're the two smartest ones. So we're still in the bottom six, but we're at the top of the bottom six. I'll take it. We'll leave those theories to the bigger minds. Yeah. I just don't like thinking about them for too long.

It makes me sad. It's too difficult. And I mean, you know, and again, even when this was coming up, Ron was good at changing the subject. I think it weighs heavy on him too. He just went right back to golf and playing golf with John Daly.

How great would that be? I'm not even into golf. That makes me jealous. If I got to hang out with him, I'd be like, listen, I'm gonna be terrible at this. Maybe some holes, I won't even hit the ball because you'll just get annoyed, but we're gonna slam some bruise and I'm gonna be terrible at this. Maybe some holes, I won't even hit the ball cause you'll just get annoyed, but we're gonna slam some bruise

and we're gonna have a good time. We're gonna pinch cart girls' tissues and that's what we're gonna do. Can I still say that on there? You can, yeah, you're allowed. I mean, I have to bleep it all out and then afterwards say the word allegedly for legal reasons, but we can't say it.

Well, they don't make them... Anyways, let's see what else he said. Yeah, I mean, well, because Joe doesn't play golf, he kind of equated it a little bit to pool, which Ron also played quite a bit as a kid. And, you know, pool is a fascinating game, and I do love how Joe discusses it and talks about it because no one's doing that No, I mean it lets you go to like a pool specific

YouTube show it's like people People aren't talking about it like a sport and and getting into like the intricacies of it and I find that just Fascinating I mean I'm lucky enough to have a pool it. And I find that just fascinating. I mean, I'm lucky enough to have a pool table. Pete and I put that together, did a great job. I mean, don't pay us to put pool tables together is not that good, but we did pretty good job. It took us seven hours and we got one eye drunk.

We gave it a little bit. We took some breaks and hydrated and then accidentally dehydrated. But it's a lot of fun and it doesn't take long playing it before you realize, Oh, this is this is actually really a hard game like that. Everyone can have a certain amount of fun and then it's and then you have to work on getting a lot better hours of lot of work to get better. That was a practice to get everything just positioned just right. They talk about that guy, the Efron guy from the Philippines, that he's like the best player of all time.

And, um, Rome was saying that somehow that guy worked onto his Instagram feed, and he's worked onto mine too. Um, I think it's just very popular videos. They're just cool to watch But it is incredible watching that guy play like even if you're not that into the sport and In England they play a lot of snooker and they put on the TV like growing up. I used to watch a lot of snooker It's just like a very TV ever it kind of is but it's also really calming as well Yeah, like I watching golf. I didn't play it very often I mean, I've maybe played on a

Regular snooker table, which is I mean you got to go to a special place for it because they're like 12 feet by 6 They're ginormous like nobody really has them in their homes You'd have to be pretty ready to talk me about coming out of place snooker. We like playing it together. It's good It's more fun. It's a fun game. And it makes you a lot better at pool. No doubt, because you're shooting over fricking, you know, diagonal shot must be like 14 feet.

And the pockets are probably 10% smaller. They are smaller than pool tables, yeah. Yeah, it's a good game, but. I'll probably play some of that today. Go do it. Go do it. Go do it. I'll have a job. What else we got with...

Oh, and then finishing up with a mothership and just, you know, I love hearing how it kind of came together and how Ron really inspired Joe to kind of push the envelope on it. I mean, obviously we talk about the mothership quite a bit and Joe does as well, but just hearing that there's like a new place for comedy. It speaks to me too because I was at the comedy store the last day that it shut before COVID.

I think it was March something. And I went to the show called Stand Up on the Spot and Rogan was there. He was performing. And it's a show where you just, Jeremiah Watkins show and it's great show, and you just shout out categories, or like things for them to talk about. So it's difficult. And Rogan used to do that show quite often.

But this day, he really wasn't that into taking the categories. He just started talking about how crazy the COVID stuff is, the shutdowns. You know, I guess they'd probably already talked about the fact that the club was gonna shut close. And it was like he knew in a way that this is the end of an era for the comedy store, which it was, you know?

It's a different place now. And- Kind of an end of an era for California and in fact the whole nation for sure for sure, I mean in a lot of ways things weren't to be the same again. It wasn't that long two months I think after that he moved and Yeah, I think by April I had moved so I moved before him. It was like you could see the writing on the wall I was like hey if you can't do stand up here anymore. What's the point of being here?

like let's just go go find somewhere else open and and Thank God. Thank God. They were able to put it together over there and put that team together and For whatever reason Austin was just the place that works and really it came from Ron I mean Ron was the one that planted the seed in a lot of ways. You should just start your own club, Joe. Well, he was saying move to Austin, it's awesome. So he lives in Austin.

Yeah, he lived before the pandemic. A huge awesome condo. No doubt, or just a giant ranch house. He has a lot of money, dude. Ron used to have a really dope place in Beverly Hills I mean, I think that blue collar tool just I mean he made so much freaking money off that back in the day That was huge. I Grew up on those the Kings and comedy the blue collar tour. Yep

I will walk some over-to-over deaf comedy jam over and over so good The only guys kind of struggled with was that a getter done guy It just it just felt like such an act supposedly he didn't eat that's not even it well clearly That's not his real name, but he didn't even sound like that when he started He didn't even have like that strong even close to that strong of accent. And I guess he speaks like it all the time now. I'm like, all right, Method actor, I guess, but good for you. Yeah, mess, the actor. And the messed up actor.

Love that. Good old Ron White. What a ledge. He'd be on lots, I'm sure, now that they're all together there in Austin. But let's jump over to good old Yana's Papa's. So... Strong Greek name. Very much. So been around forever. He's known Joe for a very long time. One of the OGs. Talking about therapy, EDMR therapy. I'd not heard of that before. I'd not heard of that. Eye movement and reprogramming of trauma. So I guess they bring up kind of a traumatic event

and then have you look around with your eyes and it somehow reprograms your brain. My basic level of understanding of it is he's, the doctor has some device, level of understanding of it is he's the doctor has some device either their hand or clicker or a pointer or images on a screen or two screens that you look at with one or both of your eyes left and right and it as you are doing your as you're remembering the traumatic event you are using your eyes to reprogram how you process that trauma and don't forget it And nothing really changes except for how your body responds to the trauma. Huh? So you activate your left and your right brain And we should look into it more. I think we should become certified in administering those tests. Maybe get into that

Sounds great Yeah, and that and that's not like just a joke that he said that. I am in grad school for mental health therapy and Pete will be soon. We will both eventually be therapists. And I think that will be a really good thing to know how to do if it's helpful. Because traumas on the higher end of the most difficult

things to help people work through. So be good to know. And trauma, everyone has it. I have it, you have it. We all have it. Figure out how to get how to deal with it. Right. You know, let it deal with us. Sure. And obviously, it's more severe for other people, um, for some people than others. But like Joe often says, the worst thing you've ever experienced is the worst thing you've ever experienced. It's like, it's why little kids, little kids will cry for hours if their balloon floats away or they drop their ice cream. It's like, obviously as you age, you get more resilient and you can take on more things.

I mean, that would be a strange reaction if an adult did that. You're like alright you need to calm down but it makes sense for a kid. That's the worst thing he's known at that time. And you know. I know. So sad. But it was cool that. What are you crying about? I get it together boy. It was cool that Yanis was open about talking about that. I don't think you know it's nice to see because you know he doesn't look like a big pussy you know he's not acting like it doesn't seem like he shies away from difficult things I mean he's a stand-up but he was willing to talk about hey I

have a hard time with some stuff and this helps. It's good to take that stigma off it. If more people did that, especially men, you know. I'm sure this podcast that they did probably will increase the awareness of that EDMR, 10-fold at least, nobody knows about this stuff. I'm sure he helped out spending the word just now by doing that. No doubt, at least. Nobody knows about this stuff. I'm sure he helped out spreading the word just now by doing that. No doubt. No doubt. They quickly went into some more conspiracy things following up on the Epstein Island bit. It's like that whole thing there. And

they have been talking about the list a lot online, people think they have it and they're releasing names here and there, like Bill Gates has come up. I don't know who else, Leo, I think, to Cabrio. Whoops. Oops. But yeah, it's like- He has his own money. What do we really know? You know, will we ever find out? It's pretty, it's bubbling up that Epstein was almost certainly an agent of our government and maybe other governments to blackmail people to control them.

Right. It's a parent to smarter people than us, that he was a CIA or a Mossad agent working with Israel. And you've got to think videos are out there. Like, I would have thought though for him, he would have created backups that were ready to be released online in a way that couldn't really be that traceable upon the news that he had quote unquote committed suicide. Like wouldn't that make sense to do if you were trying, like for self preservation, he must have known that he could be a risk.

And if, and if he just put it out there, hey, by the way, you know working with you guys is great but also This whole file will be released if Maybe he couldn't even set that up because they would just drag him in and torture the shit out of him till he told them where it was Well, you know his house was raided This by the in I think palm no, it was in Florida. Yeah, and the New York one. So then maybe it was that one I'm thinking of,

where they went in, they went in and saw names on tapes, walked out and left, where security search warrant came back and they were gone. Right. Something like this. Yeah, but it's like to think that he wouldn't have- So he had copies? It's to think he wouldn't have set up a backup that was getting released

Yeah, just having some recordings that could get released. I guess You know just Lane or however you say her name. She might have been in charge of that Yeah, I think so there's a reason why she's still alive. There's got to be. Yeah. Yeah. She was probably the brains. She was the one who's actually connected with Massad.

Her dad was an agent, wasn't he? I don't know. He was a big media guy in England. And I think sometime in the 90s, early 90s, he was a big like media guy in England. And I think sometime in the 90s, early 90s, it was a big story in England when I grew up that he like died on his yacht and it was very suspicious. Like shot in the back of the head or something? I don't know.

I can't remember the story. I think he like fell overboard. It was one of those It's kind of easy to get rid of a body Stick him overboard and get him done But yeah, the she's definitely connected and he she probably got ahold of him Turned him Into an agent and then and and then she probably took the steps and measures to back up all those files and at least have one or two in the pocket in case this ever happened.

No doubt, yeah. Because it for sure was gonna happen. Yeah, and I guess maybe her deal is listen, we won't kill you. You have a pretty easy ride in here, but we need to keep you locked up and you don't get to talk to anybody. And if that file ever comes out with chopping your head off. If you talk to anybody, we're going to chop your head off. No doubt.

But you're over to Elon and Twitter. Basically, Elon's got some plans with Twitter. It makes sense that this would happen. I mean, he was one of the co-founders of PayPal. So I had a feeling he was going to put some sort of banking app in there, maybe a Twitter related crypto at some point. He just didn't seem that bothered that the value dropped so much. It's almost like he knew that that was going to happen anyway. And I mean, you know, people have said, oh, he's so rich, he doesn't even care. Look, dude, you don't get that rich by blowing $30 billion on a crazy project. Like he knew something was happening. It's like, even if Twitter value

went down considerably, which it did, it wasn't going anywhere. It's a big media, social media platform. It's huge for news and information. All he had to do was go in, clean it out, you know, which he did basically fight everybody. And now he's like, right, now what are we doing with this? So banking system is probably coming in, some sort of AI that's gonna get connected to it that will maybe be a good competitor to chat GPT. That's probably a smart move. And we'll see where it goes from there.

I mean, he's gotta do something with it, but they're saying chat GPT could be worth as much as a hundred billion right now. Hundred billion, dude. So of course Elon's going to get into that. And you know, it's it's another way for him to ensure that AI is being created in the right way because there's a lot of controversy about how it's working right now. I think it's great. It's super interesting to me. It is super interesting. And there's so many different factors to be afraid of,

and there's also almost as many to be excited about. I think so. And on a more positive note, I want to play a little clip that Joe kind of ended the pod with with Janice and It was just like a very Motivational way of being so I'm gonna play that right now. Life is finite. You have a finite time There's a you have a finite amount of time that's available to you living as an organism on earth That's a fact and I am already more than halfway through that. I'm halfway towards the end. And you have to maximize your time to the benefit of both yourself and everybody else

around you. That's what you got to do. You got to be as good a friend as you could be. You got to be as good a husband and as good of a father and as good of an employer, as good of an employee, as good of a neighbor. You got to be the best you can be at all these different things. Just do your best to have the most positive impact on the people around you. You're going to fuck up.

Everybody fucks up. We're humans. Correct that as much as you can. Express yourself as best as you can. Be as nice as you can. Be as nice as you can. Try to facilitate and try to encourage fun and happiness and love and that's possible. It's possible in the community of people that you find yourself in and if you can't,

you need to find a better community. Or you gotta be a better person. You gotta be a better person. And you gotta be. There we go. I love that, dude. I love that. It's very simple. It's off the cuff, which

is something that Rogan is really good at, but it's just crisp. He just has like a good way of understanding who he wants in his life, how he wants to show up, how he needs to do things. And anyone listening to Rogan should pay attention to those moments of the pod, because he's not out there just preaching at people. He's not saying you have to do it this way. It's just how he does it. That's a suggestion in his experience. He's seen it works well for people.

And I love that. So good. Any thoughts on like it too. I would definitely recommend this podcast. If you're, if you're shying away from the comedian ones Um, don't do this one because it is even yannis has some great rants to towards about political stuff about about the middle east stuff

And he and he says and they resonated with me was i'm a yeah, I'm against all things that are bad. Like, oh, what about this insurgency or the reciprocation of this country? He said it's all bad. He's against all bad things. I liked Giannis. He's great. Yeah, he's great. Yeah, no walls, man. None ever.

We gotta figure out this war bullshit. Sucks, David. All right, let's jump over to good ol' Joey Diaz. Come on. Now Joey is really opened up with an announcement that he wants to play like 10 more gigs or something and then pick his residency. And he's thinking Philly, tough crowd,

you know, they're not gonna get old Butthurt, woke on him and he's walled out. And walk out. Yeah, I mean, you know, they're not gonna get all butthurt, woke on him, and he's wild animal. And walk out. Yeah, I mean, Rogan's right. Joey, I've seen Joey Diaz so many times at the comedy store, and I have to agree that when he's on one, which is often, he gets, he says the most outrageous shit you've ever heard, he gets the crowd going,

like people laughing so hard, they're like falling over. He just has this like RPM that he hits. Arogan describes it way better than me, but I've seen him do it. I've seen Diaz do it so many times. He just is really the best at just taking you on a journey. And everyone's afraid of following Joey. Nobody likes to follow him. Because the crowd's like, oh, I can't even, my ribs are hurting, like it's so good. And I'm glad that towards the end,

Joey and Rogan kind of discussed a residency or kind of partial residency at the comedy mothership. I mean, I think Joe's gonna have a hard time getting him to move there, but he might get a second home down there and spend some time there. Yes, he needs to get out of Jersey. Or maybe he loves it so much that he doesn't wanna leave.

Oh, he loves it. He's like the king of that place. Yeah, hope, yeah. You know, for how long? I mean, ultimately you're going to be wanna, as you get older, you're going to want to be around the people that you care about the most and maybe get enough good comedians down there.

He might get down there. Kind of sad to hear him say he's done with podcasting. I mean, well his own podcast. True, but he must make a lot of money with it. I wonder why he just be done, Joey just does his own thing, his way. And you gotta respect that. He was adamant about not,

he said this is the last podcasting. Yeah. But he's, but Joe said, whenever you wanna talk to him, Mike, come back. So he's, that's not the last time we see Joey Diaz on this podcast. No, no chance. He's definitely gonna be back. And, no chance. He's he's definitely going to be back.

And, you know, I really love it too, when he gets into it, like his older stories, like when he used to be a lookout, when he was like five years old for a stepdad, and he just knew all the bookies. And he was like, hey, the cops are down that street. Don't go down there. Like he is like 18. Exactly. His life is just so wild. And even later in the life, he was doing a pod with somebody.

They brought some Ketamine. He did too many lines and tried to drive. Drove home. What a lunatic. Fell into a K-hole after, it was like yelling his wife. Then the next day he's like, oh, sorry, I just got, you know, got carried away. That's what I did.

What a beautiful drug. I mean, medicine. got, you know, got carried away. That's what I did. What a beautiful drug. I mean, medicine. Right, it's a medicine. A lot of benefits. There's a benefit there. Mm, there is. Now, Joey's always been known for being able to do ridiculous amounts of edibles.

You know, he used to do these things called the stars of death. I remember when they were sold in Cali, you could get them. I think they were like 500 milligram. Maybe they were a thousand. I thought there were 40s or hundreds. They're 50s. I think they were bigger than that.

Let's Google it. Let's give you a quick. And it was like, Joey, I wasn't a bad way. I was having a bad attack, but I'm back baby. And he eats two more after that lunatic Yeah, let's look it up. Oh, yeah 1,000 milligram 500 milligrams my god, dude Dude a hundred a hundred would put me into a I just a terrified state. I think you can still buy him

Yeah, 500 and he took two of those I It's a terrified state. I think you can still buy them. Yeah, 500, and he took two of those. I couldn't do it. I mean, even with Rogan saying 200 makes him squirrely. Dude, I've had a hard time with a 50 cookie one time. Yeah. Yeah.

I got to, I was in Cali, it was all legal. I went to a bar to meet some buddies of mine. We were having some beers. I had the 50 cookie I'd already eaten. And I remember talking to a friend of mine who was English and I could not understand what he was saying. I thought he was fucking with me. I thought he was just like looking at me going,

jobba, jobba, jobba, jobba. And I'm like, I don't think these are words. I don't know what to do. Jesus. Dude, it was nuts. Well, it got worse because a fight broke out in the bar and it kind of like pushed into my direction

with security there. And I ended up getting one of the guys in a headlock and I'm like, this is really the last thing I wanna be doing right now. I'm scared to just exist at the moment. And now I'm like, I've got someone in a rear naked. It was not fun. Isn't your English friend over there like a pretty robust

fellow? Did he back you up at all? Oh no, he didn't do shit. No, he just stood there watching going, what the fuck? It's a weird thing though. People, people act very strange when, when a fight is happening. Like most people just kind of, I'm like, I'm kicking, I'm kicking, I'm biting, I'm smitten. You're a biter. You're a biter.

Yeah, it was too much, too much going on. But that was just a 50. I mean, it does really get slippery. And like Joe said, there is a very psychedelic part to edibles. If you go high enough, it might as well be acid, mushroom level, like you're not really capable of functioning to some degree.

And be careful with those everybody. It is, that's about the only time I've ever been too uncomfortable with that stuff is when I eat it. And you can definitely overdo it. And I almost never offer them to anybody if I ever have them because it is, it's all legal here of course, but it's, you can put them in a bad way.

And I feel very responsible if someone gets too high on something I've passed off to them. Oh yeah, I've given someone a five milligram mint once and they were really uncomfortable. They like had to go for a walk. And now- How weak? Yeah, I was like, whoa.

That's so weak. Five milligrams is so little. It is so little, right? That's why I thought that they'd be fine, but it just goes to show that like it reacts with different people differently. And yeah, get that dosage down. Be careful kids, you can have fun on five.

You stick with five. You're not trying to win the world record for eating a thousand milligrams. For how mumbly you can get embarrassed you can be. Oh, too much, too much, man. Anyway, yeah, that's Joey. He's a wild animal for sure. What about the story they were finishing up with the drunk guy that survived the Titanic?

Let's talk about that. So, if you... What was they were saying? If you're drunk, then your body can still function and stay conscious at much lower temperatures. Do you think that would be a survival tool then? If you got like stuck in a cold place and you didn't have a jacket? No, it would be only if you had to chill the F out. So like the Canadian expert who talked about the drowning said that it was a benefit to this guy only because he was in a really stressful situation and it helped that he was relaxed and that alcohol may have been maybe keeping him from freezing a little bit, but it ultimately

doesn't help you. Right. I guess if you just had to survive for four or five hours in a very tough situation like that, you could just add it. But probably anything beyond that, I mean, you'd start sobering up, then you've already worn your body out a little bit. That wouldn't be good.

And yeah, pretty slippery. They've also, I also remember- What a man's man though. Right. I mean, you survived that, that's a hell of a story. He was like tossing women into the boat, you know, to save himself. Rather than saving himself, he saved them. Yeah.

Just chugging, chugging tequila while no one's looking. Legend. Yeah. Probably, probably whisk your vodka. Very few people survived that in the water, right most of the people that survived on the boats I Think like 30 minutes in 33 degree water is About it for everybody. He was there for two hours. Oh damn. Yeah Yeah, swimming around I wonder what the move is like you probably just keep moving, keep swimming, because then you can at least create some temperature.

You would feel though that you like, I would imagine you just start like cramping and spazzing up, then you'd be fucked. Well, let's hope that doesn't happen again. Yeah, let's hope not. Well, I've also remember when I was younger hearing story of this dude in my town that like fell down this big kind of, I think he just fell down like a storm drain or like a sewer system. And it was like a long way.

But because he was hammer drunk, he didn't hurt himself that much. He was like relaxed during the fall and just kind of crawled out of there with a sprained ankle. His hat was just like kind of a skew. Yeah, his glasses were just off a little bit. His woolens were ruffled. He's like, I lost my mitten. That was it, just lost the mitten. I like how half of England's national stories

are about this bloke that like is so drunk that he survived some terrible activity. Yeah. It's just big liquor, just trying to spread positive misinformation. No doubt. No doubt. Anyway, that's our show for this week. Enjoy those three comedian podcasts. We got Bobby Leon next week, which is Long show for this week. Enjoy those three comedian podcasts.
